To calculate the gravitational force on Mars, we can use the equation F = mg, where F is the gravitational force, m is the mass of the helicopter, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Given that the mass of the helicopter is 1.8 kilograms and the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.71 m/s^2, we can calculate the gravitational force on Mars as follows:
F = (1.8 kg)(3.71 m/s^2) = 6.678 N
Therefore, the helicopter's gravitational force on Mars is approximately 6.68 N.
The correct answer is:
6.68 N
On Earth, the gravitational force of a robotic helicopter is 1.8 kilograms. What is the helicopter’s gravitational force on Mars?
On Earth, g = 9.8m/s2
On Mars, g = 3.71 m/s2
